I doubt anyone would be able to surpass Manny's hype. Manny could very well be the biggest hype job of all times and reign for centuries.

Can Donaire surpass Manny in terms of greatness?

Pac has had a lot of drama the last couple of years......allegations and weight draining,etc. but no one can deny that his career has been one of the most successful careers in boxing history.
Donaire "can" surpass Pac but he is a LONG way from doing so.

Originally posted by whirlwind View PostLMAO. Correction, 8 fights in total and he lost only once to Morales. Read my other post above and put your idol accomplishments side by side.
Anyway, I already am familiar with your point of view with Pac and you obviously think every title was actually meaningful. And my idol? I'm horribly critical of Donaire, probably a bigger Pac fan but I have a pulse. I can actually, believe it or not, criticize a fighter who I like and I dont have to believe he's the goat. Shocker, I know. In terms of paper accomplishments, it'll be hard to beat Pac, but that doesn't mean he's the better talent. Keep your close minded point of view, we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Originally posted by whirlwind View PostNo. Not even one. Even a century from now on. Not even single person can achieve all this accomplishments in one single belt. This is a fact.
pro boxer at 16
world champ at 19
lineal champ at 19
3 divisions champ by the age of 24
2 lineal champ by 24
8 divisions champ by 30 (first and only in the world)
4 lineal champ by 30 (first and only in the world)
p4p #1 in 5 years straight and top 10 p4p in 10 years
3 times fighter of the year
Fighter of the Decade
fought from minimumweight up to light middleweight
and so on
Now put Donaire accomplishments side by side vs Pacquiao accomplishments or any other boxers from the past or present. If there is any boxer has all the above accomplishments and then remain undefeated, became 9 divisions or 5 lineal champ then we can now say someone surpassed Pacquiao.

Probably not to be honest. He's already 30 or something like that right? He's also not as big as a draw as Pac is in the US for some reason. He doesn't really have the opportunity to go through wars with Mexican legends like Pac did, that may be why.
